Women's Dress Shirts (Page 2)

I always go to Express or The Limited. They make dress shirts that are fitted and some have stretchy fabric so they don't blouse out.

QFT

as I was transitioning out of the military we have to go through a transition course and one of the things they do (or at least the one I attended) is have a woman come in who is a professional image consultant/personal shopper and she spent time talking about buying off the rack, getting stuff tailored etc

she said even if something fits (in your perception), take it in and see what a professional tailor can do - because even a tiny nip and tuck can make something look 10x better - for example, with a straight A-line skirt...she says ask the tailor to narrow it down about an inch (1/2 inch on each side) because it causes a slimming effect and makes your legs look longer

I have to get blouses etc tailors - thank you broad shoulders/big boobs; but like others, I find knit tops work. I also tend to favor dresses and just do a nip/tuck at the waist

ZOMBIE THREAD! I never even noticed

I think part of it, is the related threads box that pops up underneath discussions...there have been a few times I have seen one that looks interesting and when i've gone to comment, i've realized that it is a thread from 2008/2009 etc

Is that anything like a tent revival? Do you have to be Baptist to read it?

That's fine.

If you happen to be in Hong Kong (on business or pleasure, whatever) get a bunch of tailored shirts. You get to choose your fabric and style, they measure you, and you will get a very well tailored shirt (or you might as well go for the full shirt/jacket/skirt/pant combo) in 24-48 hours. Hong Kong has some of the best tailors around.

Obvs it's ridiculous to go to Hong Kong to buy these things alone, but if you happen to be there...besides, it's not too far for the Aussies and Asians here on BT.
